Context History (more history, all contexts)

Start Date Context Status Description
2024-10-09 hst_1188.pmap operational Delivery of new STIS CCD bias and dark reference files for CCD data taken between September 7 and October 2, 2024. The files were generated from data taken in the same time frame under STIS calibration programs 17378 and 17376.
2024-10-08 hst_1187.pmap archived This is an update to the COS NUV TDSTAB reference file for mode G285M, obtained using the Python analysis scripts analyze_files.py and analyse_data.ipynb. In a previous delivery of TDSTAB, the G285M solutions were incorrectly copied over and provided incorrect corrections. The G285M rows are now correctly copied and contain the same solutions used before the introduction of wavelength dependence. The reference file has a USEAFTER date of 2009 May 11, the start of COS NUV operations.
2024-10-03 hst_1186.pmap archived New STIS FUVMAMA throughputs are being delivered for ETC version 33.1. Throughputs are updated due to changes in the FUVMAMA TDSTAB. There are no changes to the NUVMAMA and CCD throughputs, and these files are evaluated to match the MJD evaluation date of ETC version 33.1.
2024-10-03 hst_1185.pmap archived Updated COS synphot files for ETC 33.1. These include throughput changes due to updating the NUV TDSTAB. These are evaluated at MJD 61131.
